Several things we liked about this rental home -- the location was great, just a few miles from Bologna in the hills outside the city. Just far enough away to feel that you're in the country, but with great access to Bologna and easy day trips to Modena, Parma, Ravenna, Ferrara, etc. The home also has ample size for a large group, with plenty of space, a great game room, and a nice yard. The hottub was also a nice addition. A couple of minor isssues, however. The caretaker was present (he lives on the property), but wasn't tremendously helpful. And there is another family that lives in a home that essentially fronts the same yard, and they didn't seem thrilled to have guests on the property.
